An online petition is calling for a £25 weekly uplift to be added to Basic and New State pension payments
An online petition is calling on the UK Government to increase the State Pension for disabled people by £25 each week in order to reduce the pension wealth gap for retired workers. Petition creator Aneesha Sandhu said that the £25 weekly uplift would “help provide stability for retired disabled workers who need it most”.
Ms Sandhu said: “The pension wealth gap is massive and many people are struggling so an extra £25 a week can help provide stability for retired disabled workers who need it most. It is important we help those who need it. Let's make a difference together.”In April, State Pension and most benefits increased by 10.1 per cent as part of the annual Department for Work and Pensions uprating.
The Pensions and Lifetime Savings Association regularly publishes retirement living standards, to give people an idea of the amounts they may potentially need in retirement, whether they are aiming for a minimum standard of living, a comfortable standard of living, or a more luxurious comfortable lifestyle in retirement.
